This document summarizes the welder performance qualification test of welder Lakshmipathi. The test was conducted according to ASME Section IX requirements using automatic GTAW on a 316L stainless steel plate with a thickness of 1.65mm in the 2G and 5G positions with downhill progression. The welder qualified for welding plate and pipe from 1.65mm to 3.3mm thickness in all positions. Radiographic testing was performed and the weld was found to be satisfactory with no defects. Sathishkumar M supervised the welding and evaluated the test specimens.
